Hypothalamic and Cell-Specific Transcriptomes Unravel a Dynamic Neuropil Remodeling in Leptin-Induced and Typical Pubertal Transition in Female Mice
Epidemiological and genome-wide association studies (GWAS) have shown high correlation between childhood obesity and advance in puberty. Early age at menarche is associated with a series of morbidities, including breast cancer, cardiovascular diseases, type 2 diabetes, and obesity. The adipocyte hormone leptin signals the amount of fat stores to the neuroendocrine reproductive axis via direct actions in the brain. Using mouse genetics, we and oth…
Big Old Theory: Sous les pavés , April 12–14, 2018
The meeting of U.S. academic feminism and French poststructuralist theory in the 1970s and 1980s produced a new mode of reading still crucial to feminist politics today
Gender and the Lure of the Postcritical

Reading for Pleasure
Reading for Pleasure" suggests a way of drawing the line between what is and what is not theory today. Following Roland Barthes, the author uses her own reading pleasure as a gauge, taking pleasure to be idiosyncratic rather than subjective. Assuming that all types of criticism are driven by a certain kind of pleasure, the essay looks at two genres-that of "exuberant critique" and that of "expansive system-building"-but finds theoretical pleasure…
